    The word Hamas is in a different font than the rest. It looks like the meme used to say a different group, but it was edited to say Hamas instead. Putting Hamas in the same category as the IRA isn’t fair. The IRA didn’t take money from England. The IRA were actually feared by the tyrants they fought.

    Drag hates being asked that question. “Drag was stuck on a hard problem… And then drag figured it out?” Drag doesn’t know how to explain inspiration. Nobody does, not even philosophers or psychologists have managed to explain that moment of insight where suddenly it all makes sense.

    This is the correct way to do friendships. Drag doesn’t agree with the forced intimacy of learning someone’s name the same day you meet them. Names should be shared the third time you meet someone. Of course sometimes it’s necessary to learn names earlier or later, but the default should be third.





  • Drag thinks that’s like saying after eating a thousand meals, food would stop tasting good. Drag has had many thousands of meals throughout drag’s life. They’re far apart enough that drag is usually hungry by the time the next one comes along. Drag’s sense of hunger keeps on returning, day after day, because hunger is a biological function that’s designed to work that way. Drag thinks love would keep coming back, again and again, for the same reason.



  • An immortal doesn’t tend to love a million people at the same time.

    Drag can imagine loving someone who becomes drag’s entire world for 60 years, and then they die. So drag spends the next 200 years wearing black and listening to sad music like Linkin Park. And then drag heals and becomes ready to love again.

    Mortals don’t get 200 years to grieve. So if they need that much time, you don’t get to see the other end of that. But drag believes there is another end. This too shall pass.


  • The point of grieving is to overcome the feeling of loss. Drag thinks an immortal would get really good at grieving. Really efficient. They’d have moved past their loss, and be ready to love again.

    Besides, you don’t need friends to be happy. Look at aplatonic people. They say they still enjoy life. That’s empirical evidence, we don’t need to speculate. If you didn’t want friends, you’d get by without them.




  • Nah, no way. Even for an immortal being, time is limited. You can never watch every movie, listen to every song, or play every game. They’re made at a faster rate than you can consume them.

    If your dream is to meet Oprah and you’re immortal, that doesn’t mean you get to meet Oprah. Oprah is busy. You’re still going to have to bust ass to become important enough to merit an appointment before she dies of old age. There are still obstacles and limits and timers.
